OpenShift Release Metadata Fetcher

About

This skill enables Claude to retrieve critical lifecycle information for OpenShift releases by interfacing directly with the Sippy API. It provides structured data regarding General Availability (GA) dates, development start times, and release sequences, allowing developers and SREs to validate version existence and contextually analyze release timelines. By automating the lookup of version metadata, it streamlines dependency management and provides essential context for regression analysis and component health monitoring.
